I can't stop these voices in my ear.
They sing the same old thing year after year.
Won't you hold me tight, and let me know you're near.
When you're around, it's all clear.
A head on fire, and full of mercury,
I'm stepping down from this great legacy.
Call it prose, or call it poetry,
Sweet harmony, here's what you do to me.
These visions won't stop haunting me;
These demons of regret.
These spirit things are taunting me.
They challenge me to forget.
A head on fire, and full of mercury,
I'm stepping down from this great legacy.
Call it prose, or call it poetry,
Sweet harmony, here's what you do to me.
Clara, it's been years since I could hear your voice without the clouded noise.
There's nowhere else to go, so I'll jump to the icy Rhine below.
A head on fire, and full of mercury,
I'm stepping down from this great legacy.
Call it prose, or call it poetry,
Sweet harmony, here's what you do to me.
A steady hand, or the quiet life; these are luxuries I'll never realize.
Note by note, I'll sing this through,
Between the bars that write me back to you.
